The Rise of the Suns

Campbell Brown is a former Hawthorn Premiership player who moved from Hawthorn at the start of 2011 to play for the Gold Coast Suns in their debut season for the AFL. Brown has kept a diary and offering a running commentary on a season in which history of some sort or another will be made on a weekly basis. AFL superstar Gary Ablett, the freakish Jared Brennan and future stars David Swallow, Zac Smith and Maverick Weller are among his teammates.

The Rise of the Suns, A diary of a historic season gives an insight into the person Campbell is, the team that is the Gold Coast Suns and the new superstars we can expect to see lead the team to success over the coming years.
